The back and forth between President Trump and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., over the partial government shutdown escalated Friday, as Pelosi said the White House leaked plans for a congressional delegation to fly commercially to Afghanistan.

On Thursday, Trump said he was revoking a military flight for the CODEL, suggesting Pelosi fly commercial instead.

Pelosi was apparently prepared to do just that. But she told reporters Friday that in the midst of the planning word came that the White House had leaked that the delegation was preparing to travel commercially.

“The fact that they would leak that we were flying commercial is a danger not only to us but to other people,” she said, adding it was “very irresponsible on the part of the president.” But she dodged a question about how she knew the administration was behind the leak.
